With a quarter of the season behind us, the 2025 MLB campaign is in full swing. It's too early on to see who the true contenders for the World Series as well as end-of-season awards are, but at this juncture we can crown Nike as true innovators of the on-field jersey movement in the 21st century.
The latest proof of Nike's domination comes in the form of the stylish Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack. Dropping right in the middle of the action-packed season, this collection perfectly fuses baseball culture with court-ready aesthetics, available now at Nike.com and select retailers.
Groundbreaking Design
Each vibrant colorway in the pack represents official City Connect colors for nine MLB franchises that have become fan favorites since their introduction:
- Chrome Hills - Los Angeles Dodgers
- Midnight Navy - New York Yankees
- Chilli Red - Boston Red Sox
- Miami Vice (pink/blue) - Miami Marlins
- Desert Sand - Arizona Diamondbacks
Technical Superiority
Maintaining Air Max tradition while incorporating baseball utility, the Air Max 270 MLB features:
- 360° City Connect color splash on the upper
- Special diamond-stitch finish inspired by jerseys
- The largest visible Air unit in AZ 270 history
- Hidden webbing underneath textile overlays for lockdown
"This might be our best baseball lifestyle collab yet. It wears like a Air Max while celebrating local iconography through textiles that tell each city's story." - Seth Mayberry, Nike Baseball Senior Designer
The Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack retails at $200 and won't stay on shelves long after this weekend's anticipated MLB All-Star weekend sporting event happens between League icons.
